Chapter 9 – Kiss and tell

I could feel the heat of anger running through my veins. His arrogance is making my blood boil!

I gave him one sharp glance and then I turned around to leave.

Heero raised an eyebrow and murmured, "So, she really left."

He breathed in deeply and yelled, "Go! Faraway and don't ever return!"

I glanced back and squinted at him angrily. "You are a monster, Heero Yuy!"

I walked as fast I could; not caring where my feet would take me. I trampled upon wild grasses, went pass tall, towering trees and importantly, away from Heero Yuy.

Why? Who does he think he is? The king of the whole universe? Is he that great to always think that he is correct or to always expect other people to follow his desires? How stupid! A totally egotistical, overbearing, inexorable jerk - that is his exact description!

He keeps on calling me a stupid person, insulting my existence, yelling that I am silly and good-for-nothing. I've always had my apprehensions about studying in the city but it's there, where I'll be able to get the best education. All my life, I've learned to live with tranquillity and simplicity. Eating only vegetables from our backyard and fish that Father catches, I never dreamed of sumptuous buffets and expensive dinners. The huge beach just beneath our small town served as our pool and the wide fields where the breeze gently blows is our mall.

I suddenly missed my home, although I conditioned myself long ago to enjoy the city and appreciate the good things there. I can't help but long for the love and kindness of the plain folks back there at our province.

As I saw a wildflower amidst the grasses, I easily remembered my good friend, Hilde and her mom and all the girls at the dorm. They really helped me fit in the city and I felt like they're really my family. Yes, they can get naughty and nosy sometimes but I think they're all pretty nice.

Another person came into my mind as I saw the flower: Trowa. He's Heero's friend but he's way too different - Trowa's nice and polite and really thoughtful, not to mention, a true gentleman.

Suddenly, the face of that monster, came into my mind.

"I really hate you, Heero Yuy!" I screamed at the top of my lungs.

I walked some more until I found a shady tree with a huge trunk. I settled myself between its huge roots and in minutes, I fell asleep.


My stomach was again complaining so, I decided to walk around and find some wild fruits. I was walking silently when I spotted a huge fruit tree with a bunch of yummy offerings. I went under its shade, some of its leaves hide the fruits, making me think twice to climb it. I looked upwards and noticed that there seemed to be something up there for I heard strange noises. I decided to ignore it and to start climbing the tree.

I climbed on its trunk, then I reached out towards a branch when I touched something different.

"Aaaaahhh!"

"Aaaahhhh!"

I fell but I wasn't the only one who did.

And we didn't just fall.

I felt a different sensation within my lips, it felt - actually indescribable. I slowly opened my eyes and saw swirls of Prussian blue, I blinked twice to wake myself and still, a pair of Prussian blue eyes were in front of me. Those eyes can only belong to one person - Heero Yuy!

He quickly stood up, I noticed he was panting. I was too dumbfounded to react, I stared at him nervously. Suddenly, flashes of what had just happened sparked in my memory: I accidentally touched a part of his body, he fell facing me and I fell facing him. He landed on top of me - his body over mine; his lips and my lips.

I trembled in nervousness and a terrible feeling of embarrassment. I noticed that he, too, was quiet and a bit flush.

"Aaaahhh!"

"Why are you screaming?" he panic-strickenly asked.

"You're asking me?" I bellowed in disbelief. "You-"

I stopped. I couldn't say it. I shouldn't say it. Is he that stupid?

He smiled devilishly and raised an eyebrow. "Don't tell me that was your first kiss?"

I swallowed hard. It actually was—but, so what?

"Hah! How forgetful of me. Of course, that was your first kiss! Who would want to kiss a loud-mouthed-war-freak like you?" he said.

I squinted at him irritably. "Why? And so what if that was my first kiss? I am a fine, young lady - conservative and with a respect for myself!" I ranted. "Unlike you! You're a maniac; you kiss anything with skirts on it!"

"Of course, not!" he denied at once. "In fact, I've never kissed any person in my entire life except for my grandma."

"Gotcha!" I exclaimed. "So, that was also your first kiss, huh?"

He blushed terribly, just goes to show that I caught him red-handed. Hah! He thinks he's gonna get away with it.

"Don't be so excited now will ya? I know you're so elated I get to be your first kiss-"

"Are you nuts?" I cried in deep irritation.

"Don't deny it, but don't hope too much that doesn't mean anything."

I tried to breathe in and control myself from killing this overbearing jerk right here and then. And I thought I wanted to be a doctor, to give life not to end it. But, this per—no, I don't know if he's even worthy to be considered human.

He was looking like he had won this. He was making it look like I'm completely head over heels in love with him. I couldn't take it anymore!

I lunged at him; grab a hold of his shirt and spat on his face. "Listen! You overbearing, despicable, obnoxious, self-centered bastard! You know why that was my first kiss? Because I wanted it to be special, get it? I wanted it to be with that special person I'd give my heart to, the man I will truly love, someone like Trowa and not some haughty demon like you!"

I released him and we both fell to the the ground. We sat there facing each other, both panting heavily-me, tired after delivering my angry speech while he-I don't know he seems too dumbfounded to react. I spat on his face, after all.

He slowly wiped his face using his shirt while still staring at me. "So that's it.." he murmured as if contemplating something.

"What?"

"You said, you wanted to have your first kiss with Trowa."

My eyes widened in disbelief. "When did I say that?"

"In your little speech after you spat at me." He replied and then grinned. "So you like Trowa-then you're the one who's nuts!"

I couldn't reply, that wasn't supposed to be part of my speech. How did I manage to spill it out? I'm in deep trouble.

"For your information, I'm friendlier than Trowa and if I hate you this much, what makes you think, you have a chance with Trowa?" he continued.

"Hah! That's what you think!" I said, trying to defend what I think I know about Trowa. "But, even when I was cursed by the black ribbon, Trowa was the only one who came and rescued me from your stupid minions!"

But, Heero just laughed and said, "Maybe you just really look miserable but for Trowa to have special feelings for you? In your dreams!"

I glared at him angrily and left.


"Hilde!" a voice called.

Hilde glanced back and was both shocked and scared to discovered that the voice belonged to Quatre Raberba Winner.

She stopped at once as Quatre approached her. Hilde looked down wondering what she did wrong this time.

Quatre noticed this and said, "I'm speaking to you not as a haughty member of the Cinq Fatale but as the kind and amiable president of our Student Body."

Hilde smiled in relief, but still she can't say anything.

"Anyways," Quatre said. "I'm here to tell you about your friend,"

"Friend?" Hilde repeated. "Relena? Is it about Relena?"

He nodded.

"Tell me!" Hilde pleaded. "We're all worried about her! We have a feeling Cinq Fatale's into this but we're too scared to ask. So, tell me please…"

"She's lost." was the blond-haired man's short reply.

"Lost?" Hilde repeated in confusion. "What happened?"

"According to our sources, she went with Heero into their cruise ship, reports said that they might have fallen into the water and washed ashore in an island of an unknown location."

"Heero and Relena, lost and alone together in an unknown island?" Hilde gasped. "This is bad."

Quatre patted Hilde's shoulder. "Don't worry, like you, we don't want anything to happen to our friend." He assured Hilde. "We'll coordinate with Heero's men and inform you any updates."
